The master's thesis investigates how the concept traditional knowledge is represented by international organizations that are influential in development work and policy making. Departing from a theoretical framework drawing on Michel Foucault, constructed aspects of knowledge and the power relations knowledge production implies are highlighted.A recent interest within library and information science and practice to document this kind of knowledge raises questions about how traditional knowledge differs from other forms of knowledge and how knowledge organizational tools can be applied. Investigations, which critically explore the concept traditional knowledge, the power relations the concept creates as well as the interests and purposes it serves, have been surprisingly absent within the discipline. The focus in this master's thesis is how traditional knowledge is conceptualized by international organizations. A discourse analytical approach reveals the power relations that are inherent in their descriptions of traditional knowledge and how they describe the relevance of the concept for their work.

At Sandvik Materials Technology, Argon gas is used as furnace atmosphere when heattreating hot rolled wire. Upon heating chromium steel wire, a rich oxidelayer forms on the wire surface. The abstract of this masters thesis is to enhance the understanding of the constitution of the oxidelayers and the influence of the furnace atmosphere. This will be achieved by performing a number of annealing experiments on laboratory level. Also, the aim is to understand the chemical reactions and physical mecanisms controlling the pickling process.

Freemium är en affärsmodell som används allt mer, framförallt inom spelbranschen. Då stora delar av utvecklarnas inkomst kommer från virtuella köp finns det anledning att undersöka hur spelare drivs till att köpa just virtuella objekt.Syftet med undersökningen var att kartlägga de aspekter som driver spelare att köpa virtuella objekt inom Freemium-spel på persondatorer (med operativsystemen Windows, OS X och Linux). Undersökningen bestod av litteratur-, enkät- och intervjustudier.Resultaten pekar på att spelare framförallt är måna om de visuella aspekterna hos de virtuella objekt de köper. Spelare tog avstånd från att virtuella objekt skulle ha någon funktionell innebörd om de gick att köpa för pengar. Detta då många spel idag är tävlingsinriktadeoch kräver god balans mellan de funktionella objekten i spelen.Resultatet har även visat att det finns utlösande faktorer så som realisationer, medspelares innehav av köpta virtuella objekt och säsongserbjudanden som driver spelarna till att köpa virtuella objekt..
